A quotation from Arthur Conan Doyle
My dear fellow, life is infinitely stranger than anything which the mind of man could invent. We would not dare to conceive the things which are really mere commonplaces of existence. If we could fly out of that window hand in hand, hover over this great city, gently remove the roofs, and peep in at the queer things which are going on, the strange coincidences, the plannings, the cross-purposes, the wonderful chains of events, working through generations, and leading to the most outré results, it would make all fiction with its conventionalities and foreseen conclusions most stale and unprofitable.
Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930) British writer and physician
Story (1891-09), “A Case of Identity,” [Holmes], The Strand Magazine, Vol. 2, No. 3More about this quote: wist.info/doyle-arthur-conan/8…

The most important thing you have to get right in a Sherlock Holmes adaptation is that isn't just an eccentric: he's a prick.
A boastful, egotist ass of the highest degree who is only happy when he's right or otherwise putting everybody else down. He's a real bastard, and that's essential, it is there from the very first story which I'm revisiting on audiobook right now.

Writes Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in The Hound of the Baskervilles: "The past and the present are within the field of my inquiry, but what a man may do in the future is a hard question to answer."

A quotation from Arthur Conan Doyle
Beyond the obvious facts that he has at some time done manual labor, that he takes snuff, that he is a Freemason, that he has been in China, and that he has done a considerable amount of writing lately, I can deduce nothing else.

Listening to latest AUK Studios "Sir Sherlock" audio, "The Sickle and the Sea" with Tom Baker and John Leeson, and laughed at what sounds like a passing nod to a Fourth Doctor quote from Doctor Who "City of Death". These audios are being released via Kickstarter campaigns with story 3 expected soon. #SherlockHolmes #DoctorWho #Audio #Kickstarter

Catherine Sawers on using chatbots to do research:
"You know who would never use that “A.I.” tool? Sherlock Holmes. If he came across a neat little bundle of clues with a note saying “These are all the best clues, the only clues you’ll need, enjoy your extra free time” he would assume that it was a trap laid by the devious Moriarty."
Ha!
